Ingredients
- 3 Cups sugar room temp
- 3 ticks butter Room Temp (1 ½ Cups)
- 3 Cups all purpose flour room temp
- 1 Cup milk room temp
- 1 tablespoon lemon extract room temp
- 4 large eggs room temp
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325.
- Prepare a 10-12 Cup Bundt pan with a heavy coating of baking spray or a proper coating of butter and flour
- In the bowl of a stand mixer mix together the sugar and butter until creamy.
- Add to the mix the flour and milk. Mix well.
- Add the eggs, one at a time and mix till well incorporated.
- Pour in the lemon flavoring and mix well.
- Bake at 325 for about an hour and 20 minutes. Start checking at an hour and it could take as long as an hour and a half depending on your oven.
- Remove from the oven to a cooling rack. Allow the cake to sit until room temperature. Then, use a butter knife to very gently release the cake from the pan if it is stuck at all. Invert the pan onto a serving plate.
Notes
- PRO TIP: You will need all room temperature ingredients so that you will end up with a uniformly textured cake. Cold ingredients won't do their job and the pound cake won't bake properly.
- There are NO Substitutions for this cake because it needs everything in there to make a perfect cake.
- Soften the butter properly - allow it to sit out for at least 4 hours. There's no other way.
- Mix the heck out of this cake, until you add the eggs, then (because they are room temp) you'll only need to JUST mix them in.
- This is a big cake, so it takes a lot of butter and sugar to make it come out right.
- Serve this cake with fresh fruit like strawberries, blueberries and raspberries for a lovely sight.
- Allow this cake to cool completely before attempting to remove from the pan.
